Start your review of Anatomy of a Boyfriend Anatomy, 1. Jul 18, Kristi rated it liked it. First off, I just want to express my concern that some readers have been surprised that there is sex in this book.
I only wish I would have had something like this to read when I was a teen. Thankfully I have an extraordinary mother that was there for me. The only sex talk my mother ever received growing up was that sex was a dirty, nasty, thing that you only did with the one your love. Had that aspect been fully represented I think that this read would have been even better. However the actual depiction of the relationship, was totally believable! The highs, the lows and everything in between. The characters had sex yes, but they did have safe sex.
The sex scenes themselves, while they were graphic, never crossed the line of becoming phony or smutty. And probably also because The Princess Bride is my all time favorite movie. View 2 comments. Jul 07, Ifwhennotthen rated it did not like it Shelves: youngadult. I don't understand why this book is lauded as either something that needs to be banned or as amazingly innovative. Yes, it's got some sex scenes, but they are so clinical they could be in a textbook.
Also, guess what? There are sex scenes in Forever, which came out decades ago and is essentially the same book, only much better written. So how does this book differ from any other in the endless category of young adult novels where a girl has sex and suffers because of it?
It doesn't. View all 5 comments. Mar 16, Daisy rated it really liked it. The book was pretty short. It only took about an hour and a half - two hours to read.

Sep 20, Tink Magoo is bad at reviews marked it as did-not-finish Shelves: pop-my-cherry-baby , contains-idiots , setting-highschool. I read a lot of young adult books, and a lot of those books include sex. The important thing is that it's written well, it's not forced and clearly included to try and elicit a shocking reaction.
Here, I felt like crude terms were included just for the sake of it. Pushing that aside, the heroine was incredibly annoying. I'm quite surprised view spoiler [Wes stayed with her as long as he did.

This book annoyed me, but for some reason I finished it and for that reason alone I gave this book 2 stars instead of 1. The main character drove me crazy. I could smell her desperation emanating from the pages of the book. I've never threw up for days about it. Do people do this? The language she used does not sound like it would come out of a 17 year olds mouth.
For instance: "Jessica has to be the most darling dog on earth," she says, "trying not to This book annoyed me, but for some reason I finished it and for that reason alone I gave this book 2 stars instead of 1.

In this book a girl named Dominique who has never kissed a guy before, finally meets the perfect guy. This book is hilarious! Throughout the story when someon is talking to her it shows what'd she like to say, and what she actually does say.

Dominique Dom is a serious girl and dreams of becoming a doctor. She keeps a Gray's Anatomy reference book by her bed and for fun has her parents time her playing the game Operation in order to improve her fine motor skills. Dom has great parents, a supportive best friend, and now that she's met Wes, a super boyfriend. Before Wes, Dom's never been interested in guys. She doesn't want to talk to them, much less hook up with them like her best friend does all the time.
But, all that changes with Wes. Together they share many firsts and soon Dom's life is a whirlwind of emotions. Daria Snadowsky has written a very believable story about first love. The events in the story are very realistic. Everything from the obsessiveness Dom feels to the sexual experiences her and Wes share even going so far as showing Wes getting most of the sexual gratification because Dom is unsure of how to be pleasured and is too shy to talk to Wes about it. The only aspects of the story that bothered me, at times, were these: 1 Dom's obsessiveness even though I said it was realistic, it still got on my nerves.
There was a little friendly conversation, a tad of flirting mostly over IM , and then full on love! But, I guess it feels like that sometimes doesn't it? Dec 04, Elizabeth rated it really liked it Shelves: coming-of-age , series , young-adult , thank-god-i-m-no-longer-sixteen. Anatomy of a Boyfriend is one of the most truthful and realistic portrayals of teenage romance I have read.
I loved how it ended. Dominique handled view spoiler [the break up hide spoiler ] well, much better than I ever did. She completely lost it over instant messenger again, so painfully accurate — how many times did I ruin a friendship over an MSN conversation?
Jan 01, Patricia rated it it was amazing Shelves: gradeir-reading-books. Dominique expirienced something that she thought would never even think about until she met Wes. She met this highschool senior at a trackmeet. She never got that physical with a guy until she started going out with Wes.
